even though i sympathise with your situation, perhaps you are doing the right thing ........
Don't expect too much, go back to basics (yourself ,mates , family ...etc), then build yourself up from there with no expectations, you may surprise yourself (word travels fast, but it also travels slow) if you know what i mean...
Yeah, I think I should go back to basics, with more training in between and with the kind offer from Peter Pan, I will be visit her when we can arrange somethingto build up my confidence.
If your quality is up to par, you will eventually make it.
Many have high expectations in this industry (any many are led to believe they will make it (by people wanting to make money from them by offering education), although the market is being saturated) ..... whoooshka (qualified), then instant success ...... NOT.
I knew it would be hard work with lot's of training, just didn't expect hubby's problems to get in the way.
Welcome to the real world .... if you feel you are good and your work looks good in comparison to what you see out and about, .... keep at it.
I thought my work was good in comparison to some others but I wouldn't say they were perfect, I still need a lot more training.
Slow and steady sometimes wins, in all reality it does depend on your "talent" and ability (compared to others), many educators won't tell you this, they will be only too happy to take your money and cut you loose as a so called professional without explaining the pitfalls and competitiveness you will experience.
Above all, be honest with yourself.... if your work looks good and lasts well .... persist, but if you do ****e nails quite while you are ahead rather than investing in an artistic field, when in fact you may/are not be capable of competing.
Judge yourself ..... , be honest with yourself ......don't listen to people that just wanna take your money, when in fact "we all have limitations as to what we can do/achieve"
